STAUNTON - Three Augusta Health officials are joining me, reporter Gabe Cavallaro, at the News Leader office from 11:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Wednesday as I facilitate a Facebook Live broadcast for you to send them your questions. Augusta Health's hospital contract with Anthem BlueCross BlueShield expired on Dec. 31, 2017, and the contract between Anthem and Augusta Medical Group physicians expires on Jan. 31, 2018.

The Augusta Health officials participating in the discussion will be:

John Katsianis, CFO

Scott Crabtree, an administrative director who is leading the group working with patients and employers regarding Anthem

Katie Creef, a director from the business office who is working in the recently-opened Augusta Health Anthem Member Assistance Center

Anthem declined to send a representative to the session, instead encouraging members to reach out directly to the company using the toll-free member services number located on the back of their insurance cards.
